For those of you out there who live to know authentic information about the true roots of street (and other) dance, check out this link dispelling this current 'Harlem Shake' craze that's sweeping the globe. Yes, it seems like good fun (in some cases just silly really, in my opinion, haha) but yes I am bothered how it is spreading incorrect information, so check out the clip attached and get educated. I'm sure these videos will continue to be made, all in the name of fun, but as long as the authentic information is being spread along side it, I'll settle with that... Maybe. :)http://youtu.be/L4G1W2orVkQ

AUTHENTIC STREETDANCE INFORMATION ALERT!! FROM SASHA-BREAKIN TEACHER AT URBAN STRIDES:"For those who are confused by the 'harlem shake' videos. Video clips where you see people half naked humping the air to the 'harlem shake' song by Baauer have no reference to the original harlem shake dance. This internet meme was started by teenagers in australia and then spread by the public.The one and original Harlem shake is a dance originated in 1981 in Harlem, NY. It was later featured in many hip-hop music videos including 'Let's Get it' by Gdep and 'Put ya hands up' by Jadakiss. If you didn't know, now you know!Don't assume, Go research!"
